1. Lord Jesus you are one! You are Lord over every part of my life! Fill me with your Spirit today to love you with all of my heart, all of my soul and all of my strength. Let this be upon my heart! Help me impress it upon my children. Let me talk of it in my home, when I go out, when I rest & when I am walking down the road. Let every time I look at my hands or see my own face bear witness that you are Lord over every part of my life. Let the very place I call home and the hospitality I offer through it always be a witness to me, my family, my friends and anyone who enters into it, to your Lordship over every part of our lives. And let every time I leave that place & walk through the gates, be a reminder that you are Lord over all of creation and anywhere I go I can look for you and find you because you have gone before me, your presence mightily at work, inspiring us by your Spirit to do good works you have prepared in advance for us to do. Praise you Lord Jesus, to the glory of the Father.
2. Lord I confess to you that I have not always followed your heart and your way. For this I am sorry. Dear Dad, please forgive me, restore me and redeem me. Lord I pray that this day, by the power of your Spirit you have invested in me, that you help me to turn to live in your blessings.
a. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be poor in spirit, so that Lord we may receive your Kingdom.
b. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to mourn, so that Lord we may be comforted.
c. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be meek, so that Lord we may inherit this earth.
d. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to hunger and thirst for righteousness, so that Lord we may be filled.
e. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be merciful, so that Lord we may receive your mercy.
f. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be pure in heart, so that Lord we may see you.
g. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be a peacemaker, so that Lord we may be called your sons.
h. Dear Dad, please help me to turn today to be persecuted because of righteousness, so that Lord we may receive your Kingdom.
And Dear Dad please help us to turn today to rejoice and be glad when people insult us, persecute us or falsely say all kinds of evil against us because of you, as great is our reward in heaven and great our prophetic voice you have given us to this world through the lives you have freed us to live. Praise you Dear Dad through your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
3. Lord, you are at work in this world and in the lives of people who do not yet believe in you. Lord your harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Lord Jesus, please send out workers into your harvest especially here in…(name specifically the area/s you have been called to). Especially Lord Jesus, I pray that you reveal yourself to those who do not yet believe in you …(again can name specific people if you know them)… so they can come to know you and work locally in your harvest.
4. Lord Jesus, I pray against the dark forces at work here in…(name your area). I pray that you can break the bonds of evil that are at work in people’s lives and empower us who believe in you to stand firm against that evil, with our armor in place to withstand the attacks and with our light shining to show evil for what it is. Lord, break the bonds of evil that keep people in poverty, imprisoned, in blindness and oppressed. Declare the year of your favor, preach the good news, proclaim freedom, recover sight and give release. Oh Lord, we pray with all of our hearts for your kingdom to come to this place. Anoint us also with your Spirit in your work Lord. In the mighty name of Jesus.
5. Prayer of thanks to God for His goodness to us at the end of each day.
